A License to Steal
F1 drivers are incensed by the massive increase in the fees
they've had to pay the FIA for their 2008 super licenses. Now
it is the teams' turn.

Abandoned Even By Bernie, Max Stands His Ground
On Thursday, the Russians, the British and the South Africans joined
the growing list of clubs which have asked Mosley to resign. Mosley
ignored them, and rejected an offer from 24 motoring clubs of a
face-saving compromise which would have left him in office until
November. Bernie Ecclestone then called for Mosley's resignation
under the same compromise, amid rumors the F1 sponsors would add
their collective voice the day before the General Assembly will vote
on Mosley's competence. Despite all that, there was no indication
Mosley was listening to any voice other than his own.

When Worlds Collide
As the potentially decisive Extraordinary General Assembly loomed on
the horizon, opposing forces prepared for their final confrontation. In
one corner stood Max Mosley, brandishing a four-page, 'I am irreplaceable'
defense, and mounting a PR and legal campaign to move the focus from
his crippled presidency to violation of his right to privacy. Against
that, calls for his resignation came from the Japanese federation and a
delegation from the World Mobility Council. Further undermining Mosley's
attempts to manipulate public opinion and the FIA membership, Bernie
Ecclestone made public a letter to FIA members that systematically put
the lie to Mosley's elaborate defense. In turn, that led 24 motoring
clubs, representing more than 85 percent of the motorists under the FIA
umbrella, to demand Mosley's resignation. That may have been the straw.

FIA Touring Clubs Call for Mosley's Resignation
The requests, of course, have fallen on deaf ears.

Max's IED Makes His Case For Remaining in Office
In a four-page letter sent on May 16th to the presidents of all the
FIA member clubs, Max Mosley has raised the threat that the FIA will
lose Formula 1 to Bernie Ecclestone and CVC Capital Partners if he
is not allowed to see out his term. In exchange for being allowed to 'save' the FIA, he's offered to remove himself from the public eye,
and thus diffused one of the primary reasons many want his
resignation or removal. It was a bombshell of a letter, and a
political masterstroke. It may well have won him the war.

Maxed Out? Don't Bet the Farm.
Humiliated FIA president Max Mosley continues to mount an
impressive political and public relations campaign in an attempt
to retain his office. His chief success has been keeping a vote
on his removal or retention off the agenda of the emergency
General Assembly meeting slated for June 3rd. Those who oppose
Mosley have been shown how to circumvent his gambit. The question
now is whether they have the competence and the commitment to
marshal enough votes to cast him out.
